The Japanese launched their attack from six aircraft carriers in the Pacific north of Hawaii. Bombers and torpedo bombers hit the US Navy anchorage on Ford Island while fighters attacked US airfields and other military installations. Not expecting the attack, several Navy battleships were sunk or damaged. Only a few US planes were able to retaliate, and almost all of the Japanese planes returned safely to their ships.
